Does anyone know how to reinstall the Sprite Backup software that came with the stock rom? I have recently flashed my phone and now want to know if there is a way of reinstalling it.

Hey guyz.
I have made a rom upgrade to the new v3 dutty, I'm really happy with it, although I forgot that I wont be able to restore the backup + my conacts gonna go missing. I do have a backup from my phone, what do you think, is there any way to actually restore or somehow get out my contacts from that backup?
I'm with tmobile uk, that was the original rom.
Thanks a lot.
Might be better to restore the original rom, restore the backup and then use a pim backup to backup just the contacts.
i c. any idea where could i get the original tmobile rom???
many thanks
You'll have to do a search on that one if you didn't do a dump or your ROM prior to flashing another ROM.
Didnt you sync your contacts with your PC (with Outlook)?
No, I dont use outlook, so i dont have a sync. I tried to backup explorer from sprite, although I couldnt find the contact file - where it is stored. I wouldnt mind to put back the original tmobile rom, although I couldnt find it anywhere. Please all tmobile uk users if you could post your rom here, it would be nice, or u guyz know a link...
THanks
try Here for the ROM
Hope it helps!
Hi all, I have a question regarding SPB backup. I have completed a full SPB backup before flashing the ROM. After flashing the ROM if I restore the backup will I go back to where I was before flashing the ROM? For example did I change some of the registry value back to the OLD setting?
Is it better to reinstall all the programs again under after flashing the ROM? Can anyone help to answer? Thanks!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it will cause some problem if you restore the old rom backup
the better thing is to reinstall all your programs again
Basically it works - EXCEPT that progs get installed on your SD/Internal card/memory, and those create remnants. Easy to sort out if you are even vaguely clued up. I do this, then re-install progs that don't run properly afterwards (usually very few).
Hi,
I have just downloaded the latest Orange ROM and was wondering what is the best backup software to use before doing the update. Any recommendations?
Thanks.
Yes I recommend that you use search or click on pretty much any link in a signature.
alright lockerdown
PIMBackup.
OK, thanks, have actually gone on and used Sprite Backup, which seems to have worked OK. I have had to install a couple of apps, otherwise all OK.
Hi All,
Regardless of what backup tools you are using, I know everyone do backup your stuff. (If not, most people)
Do you restore your backup from your backup copied after you installed your latest ROM? or installed everything from scratch again???
Will there be any different result if you do one or the other way? Will your phone works better on either way or its doesn't makes any different?
I noticed (In my opinion) some of you report your phone works greats after the latest ROM and some said it make your phone worst.
Isn't the backup/restore ONLY work great if you still have the same ROM and not when you tried to restored it on the new ROM or vise-verse??? cos each ROM might have different coding???
Anyone one?
P/S: Please help move it to the correct thread, if you think I post it on the work thread, Thanks! :>
Hi radiowc,
IMHO I'll suggest to install everything from scratch after an update that includes a hard reset, including reg edits, and only restore data like Contacts, Appointments, etc.
That's my doing since '04...
Best,

Just today I had to hard reset due to that tf3d theme maker app. But anyways, I used SPB backup and it worked perfectly. It brought my phone back exactly the way I had it before the mishap with that app. All the contacts, ringtones, apps, fonts and themes etc.... I had to do absolutely nothing to get my phone back to the way it was. I am very pleased.
I updated my ROM recently and restored using SPB backup from the old ROM and everything has been going perfectly fine.
I use sprite backup and that works very well.
After a rom update I use "merge level 1" and I have every thing back without messing the new rom.
In other cases restore is almost writing back an image.
Hi.
so i want to back up my rom and try a new one. because so much stuff installed and tweeks i have already made i dont want to lose them all.
what is the possible way to backup everything. and then try a different rom, if i didnt like it i can go back to this rom like nothing happened ?
titanum backup only backup your applications as far as i know. not the whole rom with application
Rom Manager... i tried to do backup once before but it failed to find the rom when i went to the recovery. i dont know if i did something wrong back then. but any help would be thankful
Do a nandroid backup through recovery
Use ClockworkMod and do a Nandroid. Make sure it's the latest version, as one of the CWM versions wouldn't restore properly without reflashing the ROM over the top. Latest version works really well though.
